Abstract

A message distribution system replicates a collection of messages across multiple regional data centers. When any of the data centers receives a message for distribution from an authorized publisher, it transmits the message to each of the other data centers so that the collection of messages is immediately replicated among each data center. When any data center determines that a subscriber is connected to it, that data center determines which messages in the data collection the subscriber is authorized to receive, and it automatically sends those messages to the subscriber.
